Beautiful South - Tattoo Lyrics
(heaton/rotheray)Sadness has filled a lonely placeBefore that there was just a holeAt least now theres sadness on my faceMy lower lip has finally found its roleSo the wind and the rain and the snowHad no particular place to goSo they thought theyd come and spend some time with meTheyre better friends than you could ever beChorus:Theres a tattoo, a small tattooWaiting there unpaid for youAnd if you ever bump into unluckyDont forget who broke your heart in twoYou better get there early, theres a million in the queueJust waiting for the name on their tattooEmptiness has filled a vacant heartFinally found a place for it to hideAnd as I wander like a fool from bar to barEmpty has become my greatest guideAnd the tears and the pain and the despiseLooked at me through bankrupt eyesThey had nowhere else that they could landSo I invited them to take my bloody handChorus:So queuing for a tattoo and I cant decide the nameIve been wondering night after nightWhen they put that needle in me Ill scream your name in painAnd I hope he spells you bastard rightB-a-s-t-a-r-d, stick that needle deep in me
